i'm stephanie.
A Portland-based photographer specializing in wedding photography, couples photography, family portraits, and newborn photography. For over 13 years, I’ve been passionate about capturing life’s most meaningful moments—whether it’s the quiet intimacy of an engagement session, the joyful chaos of a family photoshoot, or the first precious days of a newborn’s life. Photography isn’t just about images for me; it’s about telling your story through natural, emotive, and timeless photographs.
Beyond personal photography, I also work with small businesses and brands, providing professional branding photography, lifestyle photography, and product photography. I’ve had the opportunity to collaborate with brands like Canva, capture live theater productions, and create marketing visuals for businesses and political campaigns.
If you’re looking for a Portland photographer to document your wedding, engagement, maternity session, family photoshoot, or branding session, I want to connect with you! - Let’s create something beautiful together.

"I will always recommend Stephanie. She made our wedding magical and we will cherish our photos for a lifetime. She is so talented and makes it easy with her simple and helpful directions for the perfect natural pose. She’s a master of light and a creative visionary who captures every. Little. Detail."
-Aubrey Sumner
"Stephanie was so easy to work with and fun! She was great with our kids and intentional about creating an environment that would help the kids relax and have fun. I would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much, Stephanie. We’re blown away by the pictures and so many of our friends are obsessed with them as well." -Lilian Her
Stephanie is one AMAZING photographer. Not only is she organized, personable and tons of fun she truly has a distinct and gorgeous photography style. Having someone take pictures of you with zero modeling experience is intimidating to say the least, but with her direction I immediately felt at ease and the pictures turned out very natural. I would highly recommend her service to anyone! - Nikki Ettner
Stephanie was super fun to work with! She made our maternity shoot a lot of fun! She went across ditches, into fields with blackberry bushes, and climbed on things to get some great shots! She's energetic fun and full of spunk! If you want an awesome experience and amazing photos contact Stephanie at SK Photography! Thank you Stephanie for great photos that will last a lifetime! -Katie Wilson
I had first seen Stephanie's work when a co-worker of mine hired her to shoot his wedding, and fell in love their day/session right away! She was the first person I thought of to inquire about booking when I wanted to gift a close friend's wedding photography. Luckily she was available, and willing to make the near 5 hour drive to the Southern Oregon venue. Stephanie was very kind, professional, and took initiative to direct the day to ensure everything was smooth for my friends. The photos turned out gorgeous, and my friend excitedly shared them with me, and sent a photo of the display box the thumbnail drive and prints arrived in, which was also very lovely. Thank you so much Stephanie! Would hire again, 10/10! - Ashley Anderson
I stumbled across Stephanie's photography page on Instagram one day and fell in love with her unique style and her ability to capture such natural, precious moments. She's done my maternity, newborn and most recently, ONE year photos for my baby girl and I couldn't be happier with her work. Not to mention, she's so easy going and fun to be around. I love that she goes with the flow and makes you feel so comfortable (even with no modeling experience lol). I will definitely continue going to Stephanie for any future photography needs. She's AMAZING!! - Vanessa Echeverria
Stephanie is so talented and such a blast to work with! She’s got a wonderful aesthetic, millions of great ideas, and delivers the most stunning memorable photos every time. We look forward to photos with SK photography every year! - Emily Tritsch
